Gifting STEM Toys This Holiday Season (Copy)

This year I’m making a conscious effort to gift smart! You might be wondering what I’m talking about. I recently discovered the world of STEM toys and was a bit disappointed that I hadn’t learned about them before. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math but STEM toys focus on so much more. Although they look just as fun as regular toys, they’re actually tools that help kids develop their abilities while they have fun and learn. STEM toys generally consist of board games, building blocks and science kits and are available for children as young as toddlers all the way to teens!

We tried out and are sharing 3 STEM toys that can all be found in the GIFT WHIZ tool that was created by Learning Resources and we loved the toys so much that we’ll be using it to make informed and personalized choices for gifts for all the kids on my holiday shopping list this season!

The Ultimate Gift for the Little Star in Your Life!

Who has a child that loves to sing? Mine could sing from the second he wakes up to the second his head hits the pillow… and even that doesn’t always stop him! I was so excited to get my hands on the Sing-With-Me Bluetooth Microphone from KidzLane to gift the little star in my life the ultimate surprise!

Perfect for ages 3+, the microphone comes with 10 preinstalled nursery rhymes (classics such as The Wheels on the Bus and If You’re Happy And You Know It), a Voice Changer, a Record & Playback feature, flashing multicolor LED lights and Bluetooth Technology so it can play your favorite songs while you have a karaoke party! There’s even a button on the front to push for an applause when the performance is over!

When my son opened this gift, his reaction went from excitement, to disbelief (he LOVED and couldn’t believe that there was a record and play back feature where he could hear his own voice singing) back to excitement and he hasn’t put it down since. He is in full time performance mode and runs around the house like Justin Bieber singing at the top of his lungs.

I love this as a gift for so many reasons. For starters, it doesn’t involve any screens which is always a win in my book! The microphone is super gender neutral so it’s perfect for any child and because of the bluetooth function, you don’t need to worry about it being age appropriate - they can play any song they want on it so it’s a gift that will stay relevant and fun even as they grow up and their taste in music changes! It will encourage imagination and pretend play and will keep your kids busy for hours! The price point is also amazing. It’s under $30 making it super affordable and perfect for any child on your list. It’s super good quality and can withstand regular use from a toddler which is also a win for me! It happens quite often that my son will get a toy and in a few hours he’s managed to break it. This microphone is still going strong after daily use for 2 weeks! Lastly, I think it’s a super creative and unique gift. I’ve never seen a toy like this with the ability to connect to bluetooth, and especially for this price, so whoever you gift this to will likely be SO surprised and grateful for such a cool gift.
